The Daily Mail tells us that the United legend Paul Scholes was been offered an auspicious deal from the upstart boys at Stoke that involves the promise of a coaching future in the Premiership.

Manager Tony Pulis sees the Manchester United midfielder's vast experience as a key ingredient for extending their stay and is ready to hand him a playing contract with the promise of a coaching role on top.

Sportsmail understands Stoke are prepared to pay a nominal fee for Scholes' services and are expecting an answer from the 34-year old former England playmaker in the next few days.

That would be crazy and he should do it.

He barely gets any time with the first team and involved commits atrocious tackles when he does.
